Topps Player Autograph Runs

[mrmopar]

I have found that while trying to get as many different Dodger autographs on cards as possible, I end up with near completion on certain years. 1978 Topps is a great example, although I have actively tried to complete that set purposefully, as it is one of my favorites (my first pack opening year of collecting). Sadly, I am still one player short, as Ed Goodson doesn't seen to like to sign much at all, let alone his 78T. In fact, I am short on team completion in many of the individual years for one or more common reasons, such as SPs, High Numbers, elusive signers or superstar players. Unless you are prepared to spend a fair amount of money, completing full Dodger team sets (even LA) will certainly be a challenge.

Another area that I find myself at near or full completion is a certain players cards and it is fun to see the progression of that players career in cards. Claude Osteen is a good example of a player who seems to sign readily, yet he had a long career and has many cards to collect, but it makes for a nice display when you get them all. Completing his run is easy and inexpensive. Completing a run for Sandy Koufax on the other hand would prove quite expensive, although it is not hard to do.

Does anyone have any interesting signed player runs that are scanned and ready to share, especially any that run a good amount of time (10+ years)?

Here is one to start. neither expensive, nor difficult:

Many guys in the 52 topps set only had that ONE card, so I'd guess a few of those would qualify!

I wouldn't mind completing a Brooks Robinson run. I have most, but that 67T would be my toughie. I'll have to dig out what I have and scan them too..

Kurt,

I'd LOVE to see a Brooks Robinson run! I only have a few signed by Brooks, but if I do a run the problem would be, at least for me, is that I'd want them ALL to be in pen. It's not that the sharpies are not nice (at least some of them), but Brooks typically signs fairly large I don't like when it obscures the card too much. I'd love to see what you have so far. Also, there are several signed '67's out there, it's just they are a tad pricey.

By the way; the Garvey run looks really nice...

I went ahead and included the 78T RB because he didn't have the regular card in the set.

Not complete and missing more than I remembered now. Oh well…



Not sure if any are fake. I never really looked at them all together, and i see some differences now for sure.
